A Visit to Barcelona’s El Born a City Within a City
.
 |
| Religious crosses and pendants |
 |
| Rosaries and religious beads….religion was a huge part of the Catalonians lives |
 |
| Beautiful ceramic plates |
 |
| Glass bottles and oil jars… |
A couple of new and modern incentives to also visit El Born CC…
L’Espai Gastronomic Del Born CC–
 |
| The restaurant housed here, “L’espai Gastronomic del Born CC” which serves tapas that are very historically Catalan in flavor |
 |
| Taking a history break….
The Llibreria Del Born–
|
 |
| A very large bookstore containing loads of historical books about Barcelona and its past |
 |
| The bookstore also carries some local goods like olive oils and reproduction maps, archeological plans, etc…..all great little souvenirs. |
And after your history tour, you’re back outside in “historic” Barcelona—it’s always a living history here in this beautiful city that holds so much from its past….

| Santa Maria del Mar Cathedral |
Barcelona definitely sits at the top of my list of favorite cities to visit and I hope I am lucky enough to get back there soon! It never gets old or boring–there are always new little nooks and crannies of old and new treasures to find!
